Gaslands: Two more vehicles finished

Got two more vehicles done for Gaslands. I actually liked the graphic on the top so I masked it off with liquid mask before spraying down the rest of the car body. Added some spiky bits, couple gun barrels, and swapped out the wheels.


And a before shot straight out of the package.


Wanted to do a car that was just weathered and a little beat up rather than completely altered. I decided to keep the windshield and just add a couple cracks and dust to it.

Gaslands: First cars done

Haven't even played a game yet but it's been fun and a nice change of pace from painting Warmachine or Malifuax miniatures. Getting some vehicles done and ready for the table.


And a before shot



I tore the truck apart, stripped the paint, jacked up the height to use larger wheels, and added in grates where the windows were using drywall tape. Going forward I won't be using that again. It works okay but not great. After that I added some weaponry in the back using a piece of sprue, zip ties, some brass rod, and spear quiver from Hordes miniatures.

For paint I weathered it trying the salt and hairspray technique for the first time. It came out okay but I'll do it much better next time. Then I just did a black wash and added additional rust and dirt effects.


Chose this one for my next vehicle since it was almost ready straight out of the package.


I didn't get a shot of this one beforehand but I did very little to it; the paint was already pretty good so I left it as well. I did do a brown wash over it and added rust, bare metal, and dirt effects after. I also added the three spikes to the front and the front and rear windshield grating.


Gaslands

Been following the Mad Max inspired game Gaslands for the last several weeks; watching battle reports, joined the FB group, and recently picked up the rulebook as well as some hot wheels and matchbox cars to convert.



I also dug around in my bits box for things that I could use to get that Mad Max look happening. Found some things that should work but I'll have to get creative with what I've got and do a bit of scratch building probably.



Game looks like a ton of fun and I'm looking forward to playing my first games soon after I get my first cars done.
